    Quality Insurance and FREE GAS with Desjardins Insurance #GetAQuoteAndWin

    This post has been sponsored by Desjardins which means I received compensation. My opinion is my own. Quality insurance is something I’ve always known I would need. As many of my regular readers know by now, I was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease by the age of 14. It’s a chronic inflammatory bowel disease with no known cure, only management. From high school on I knew any career path I chose would have to be one that offered great insurance I could trust. I have been dealing with insurance companies from the time I was a teen. I used to fill out…

    The Food Basics I Want It All Winners May Surprise You

    Food Basics I Want It All was a giveaway I first told you about back in June. The I Want It All event was set to coincide with the celebration of Canada’s 150th birthday.

As a special bonus, Facebook fans who answered the question “How would you Have it All?” on the Food Basics Facebook page would have their wishes fulfilled. Well, the Food Basics I Want It All event has closed, and winners have been announced. You will…

    A Winning Weekend $50 Flash #Giveaway

    Hello and Happy Friday!! The weekend is here at long last and I am ecstatic even though I am working most of the time. It’s still nice to have options. Maybe I will sleep in instead of waking up to an alarm to race the kids to the bust stop and take my morning walk. I don’t mind the walk part because it’s great exercise. But I would appreciate from time to time having the option to sleep just an hour longer. How about you? This weekend I am giving you the chance to win $50. For THREE Days ONLY…

    At our house the activity rarely stops. I have sporty girls.

    Bona’s Hawaii Sweepstakes and The Best Hardwood Floor Products #Giveaway: Several Ways to Win

    One of my favourite features in our home is the hardwood flooring. I love hardwood. Let me rephrase that. I love hardwood flooring that is kept clean and shiny and is not completely scratched up by kids, or pets or wear and tear. So that’s the rub so to speak. Hardwood is only as good as the products you use to care for it, and the care you take with it. I confess that I see every little scratch in my hardwood and I obsess over that. Hardwood just looks better when it is well maintained. I am always on…
